Riding on the flying shuttle taken out by Yu Xiaoqiao, Xiang Hua felt a surge of envy in his heart. Now that he had reached the later stage of foundation building, his cultivation base and strength were undoubtedly superior to Yu Xiaoqiao's. As for the speed of sword flight, Yu Xiaoqiao could never catch up to him. After all, there was a huge gap in their cultivation levels.

The flying sword Xiao Qiao took out was not only powered by spirit stones but also by magical power. Even a late stage Qi Refining cultivator like him couldn't match its speed.

There is such a type of flying apparatus, which can even be used to escape on a shuttle in the face of an unfavorable situation, so that it does not reach a desperate point.

At this moment, Xiang Hua was incredibly curious about the one-armed senior who claimed to be from the East. However, he dared not ask too many questions. The only communication they had was during the exchange of martial arts techniques. For a full eleven years, all the words Xiang Hua said to the one-armed senior didn't exceed a hundred. As for Yu Xiaoqiao calling him "senior brother," it was simply because of a young girl's heart. Seeing Lu Xiaoteng honing his combat experience and strength, she casually called him that.

However, Xiang Hua was very clear about the gap between them. For the past eleven years, he had never stopped taking pills, and they were all top-quality pills. The supply of Chi Zhu Dan had never been interrupted. Among foundation-building cultivators, his treatment was probably comparable to that of the most direct descendants of the royal family.

Eleven years' worth of these pills, if bought with spirit stones, would be an astronomical sum. Although he understood that this was a simple exchange, Xiang Hua felt a certain amount of gratitude towards Lu Xia Tian's actions. At least, in a situation where their strength was vastly unequal, the other party treated him as an equal trading partner.

Xiang Hua couldn't help but speculate about Lu Xiaotiān's identity. At the very least, the other party was an extremely skilled alchemist. Coupled with this puppet, the Yuanshen could be separated from its physical body by over two hundred miles, which was definitely not something an ordinary Jindan cultivator could achieve.

In a nutshell, this senior with one arm who had been hiding in Hongyu Town for eleven years, was far beyond the imagination of an ordinary Jindan cultivator, both in terms of strength and wealth.

"Of course, he's my Uncle Hu. " Yu Xia Qiao said proudly, then with a touch of worry, "This flying shuttle is so slow, I wonder how Uncle Hu is doing."

"Senior's strength is unfathomable. Even in Hongyu Town, it's difficult to find a Golden Core cultivator, let alone an opponent who can match Senior."

Xiang Hua comforted Yu Xiaoqiao, he was a bit speechless to her words. This shuttle was still slow; even if he used his swordsmanship to the fullest, he couldn't catch up.

“But even Uncle Hu has never shown a lack of concern for his puppets." Yu Xiaqiao was worried and anxious, her beautiful eyes filled with distress.

A few hundred miles was nothing to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, let alone with the speed of this Flying Shuttle. In just a short while, the Drunken Side Wine Tavern came into view.

However, as he got closer to the liquor shop, Xiang Hua felt a jolt in his heart. The inside of the shop was in complete disarray, and outside stood several people he knew all too well. They were the four guest disciples of Changning Jun Wangfu, all at the Golden Core stage. Leading them was a man with a long horse face, phoenix eyes, and a silver-threaded python robe, standing with his hands bound behind his back. This man was He Chongshan, the Golden Core late stage expert who had recently been invited by Changning Jun Wang.

The other three cultivators had a white-haired old woman who was also at the late stage of Jindan, and a brother and sister with large blue birthmarks on their faces, the size of a palm. The brother was at the middle stage of Jindan, and the sister was at the early stage of Jindan.

Besides these four Jindan cultivators, there were also several Zuki cultivators. Among them was Item An, the second son who had always made his life difficult with his gloomy and cunning personality.

In the wine shop, Lu Xiaoteng with his full face of beard had a shockingly deep wound on his severed arm. His clothes were in tatters and his face was extremely pale. It seemed like he had suffered a severe loss.

“Who are you, to be so disrespectful to my Uncle Hu” A green shadow flashed as Yu Xiaoqiao leaped down from the Feiyu Shuttle in a mix of shock and anger. She stood before Lu Xia Tian. Xiang Hua also landed beside Yu Xiaoqiao, his face grim.

“Such a stunning beauty exists even in this small town,” Xiang An couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Yu Xiaqiao, a young woman at the peak of her beauty, descend. The moment his eyes fell upon her, he found himself unable to look away.

“Rogue!” Yu Xia Qiao glared at Xiang An with murderous intent in her eyes.

“Having heard that the esteemed Daoist from the East is quite skilled in the art of wine, my lord wishes to invite you. Please come to the Prince's Mansion as our guest.” He Chongshan, at the head of the group, spoke with an air of nobility and grace.

Yu Xiaqiao was about to speak when Lu Xiaoteng stopped her with his hand.

“As a humble commoner, I am unworthy of the attention of a Prince. Furthermore, I am currently injured. Perhaps you should return now.” Lu Xia Tian knew these people had ulterior motives and preemptively declined their request.

"Prince Wang invites you, you are just a Jindan cultivator, don't be shameless." The elder brother with the birthmark behind He Chongshan said coldly.

"It seems like I have to go today" Lu Xiaottian smiled slightly. In eleven years, he had diligently controlled the sword embryo, temporarily merging it into a sword core, and used the power of the sword core to consume the Biqiong demonic essence. This Biqiong demonic essence was not much stronger than the sword core, but Lu Xiaottian's magical power was limited. Each time he condensed the sword core, the time was extremely short, and the sword core consumed a lot of magical power. In eleven years, if you really count it, the time spent using the sword core to deal with the Biqiong demonic essence was also very short. Instead, Lu Xiaottian himself had spent most of his time in meditation and recovering his magical power. It was through this painstaking effort that with a single strike, he finally eradicated the last trace of Biqiong demonic essence.

But this Jade Pearl Demon Qi was also extremely stubborn. After the final desperate counterattack, it almost caused the unstable Sword Embryo to riot. Lu Xia Tian eradicated this last trace of Jade Pearl Demon Qi. Since the battle with the three-headed snake demon Jade Pearl, the injuries he sustained had been completely resolved. However, the Sword Embryo's turmoil under the counterattack of the Jade Pearl Demon Qi also made Lu Xia Tian exhausted all his strength to barely suppress it.

Of course, in this tug-of-war, Lu Xiaotian's magical powers have indeed become more refined than before. And his control over the Sword Embryo has also improved significantly compared to when he first repaired the sword formation.

This devastation of the Zuixian Wine House was his doing, not that of others. Of course, the fact that four Jindan cultivators were sent to invite him at once showed that the visitor wasn't well-intentioned.

At this time, the injury had been resolved. The heavy stone that had been weighing on his heart for many years was finally lifted. Lu Xia Tian let out a sigh of relief. Right now, his internal Qi was disordered and it wasn't suitable to fight anyone. Of course, his tone wouldn't be too weak.

"This is the natural order of things, to be frank with you. Xiang Hua's cultivation has advanced too quickly, and I suspect he has stolen the County Prince's spiritual artifacts, sold them outside as medicinal pills to enhance his cultivation. As Xiang Hua also often interacts with your predecessor, this naturally aroused my father king's suspicion. This time, inviting your predecessor to the County Prince's Mansion is also an opportunity for your predecessor to clear their name."

Xiang'an had always been quite afraid of Lu Xiaoxian. This time, seizing the opportunity, Xiang'an, being the seventh son in the many children of the Duke, was born to a concubine and his aptitude among the princes was only average, nothing outstanding. Naturally, he wasn't favored by the Duke.

Due to his low status, Xiang Hua received very little resources from the princely mansion. He was ostracized by Xiang An and other princes' daughters, so meager that he had to venture out like other adventurer cultivators to gather the spiritual objects needed for cultivation.

The resources each party obtained were different, and Xiang Hua's cultivation level always lagged behind Xiang An and the others.
